Speakin of Sears, how about the Allstate? The car, not the scooter. It was a re-badged Henry J (Kaiser). Still see Henry J's at the dragstrips occasionally. Sears sold EVERYTHING back then, even houses.
Phil, I'm guessing that Ford is a '49. Very desirable year for collectors these days.
Kg, I had one of those early Hondas, 2 cylinder 600 cc. It was called a 600 Sedan. Civics came a few years later with 4 cylinders. 1972 I paid $1640 for that car brand new. My neighbors all made fun of it, but a few months later the Arab oil embargo hit and lines at the gas station started. That car only held 6 gallons, but would get about 45 mpg on a bad day. My other car at the time had a 396 in it and only got 8 mpg, so that little Honda got me through very well. I think I put about 40,000 miles on it and sold it for more than I paid for it.
